Baking Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a nonstick cupcake pan by lightly spraying it with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the room temperature whole milk and egg whites until fully combined.
- Using a stand mixer, cream the softened unsalted butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Mix in the scraped vanilla bean seeds and pure vanilla extract.
- Gradually alternate adding the dry and wet mixtures into the creamed butter until fully combined.
- Scoop the batter into your prepared cupcake wells, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-22 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the cakes cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add sifted powdered sugar, then blend in clear vanilla extract and heavy cream until desired consistency.
- Once the cakes are cool, trim the domes off and pipe frosting onto one cake, stacking another on top.
- Decorate with edible Easter grass and pastel sprinkles before serving.
